    SSO hybrid bumper, Warn winch, RCI skid trilogy, RRW sliders, everything in the cheap/free mods thread, and of course the frame recall work.
    B-C; that covers all the stuff in the vehicle fire. Make sure it's the dry type for B-C. If you want to drop the extra dime, there are A-B-C dry chemical extinguishers.

    Actually I would probably skip the B-C and go straight for the A-B-C. A is ordinary combustibles, like the upholstery, floor carpeting etc., and anything else you're carrying in the vehicle. B is flammable liquids and C is for electrical. The B-C will work in most cases but for me, my truck is worth spending another $20-30 to get the A rated extinguisher.

    Only need two things: a portable DVD player and copies of the entire series of Walker Texas Ranger to motivate you when things get tough.

    It does not. Good Samaritan is for regular first aid stuff (CPR, pressure on a wound, moving the victim out of immediate danger) to protect you from being sued by the victim. Applying sutures is practicing medicine without a license and would be charged by the DA.

    Laws vary by state, but practicing medicine without a license is illegal in all states. Common sentences range from one to eight years in prison, depending on whether it's a misdemeanor or felony offense. Many judges will also impose fines in addition to prison sentences.

    from a legal standpoint you are correct, however if I'm in the woods and bleeding out, dont hesitate to sew me up, i'll walk you through it..... we can take care of it when we get back to civilization... basic first aid be damned.. especially if i live through it I wont press charges, and i will insist the DA/doctors not as well..

    Why would a doctor press charges? DA going to do what the DA going to do. There's a time and a place for combat medicine and a place for a satellite phone and BASIC first aid. The time for combat medicine is 2003 and the place is Fallujah. The time and place for basic first aid is backwoods stateside.

    Yeah ok..... where I wheel you are nearly 2-3 hours from the nearest assistance no cell phones, and intermittent CB comms. HAM if you're super lucky... hopefully you didnt go out alone, but it happens.. I went out alone last time, nearly cut my foot with my axe.. I dont carry sutures with me, but sure wouldnt hesitate to use them on myself. provided I could stay conscious long enough to do them.. steri strips, and clot powder only do so much. cant say its something I havent thought of, and I carry gorrilla tape just for such a wound (not my first choice, but it'll save a life/limb for applying pressure to a wound).. DR would have to report the wound care thus DR would have to report you for performing a medical procedure.

    LOL! Agreed, but I really needed a quick access that wasn't near the bear spray. Would hate to make that mistake twice!

    OH bear spray, great emergency gear. Bears, intruders, eggs, toast.

    So many applications.

    You can still make it work if you have solid ground underneath and you go from either the axle tube or the bottom of your LCAs. You don't get much lift out of it but it's usually enough. It's nice to have a taller one though. I have the same setup, 2.7" front, 1.5" rear.
